"Though an old man," Thomas Jefferson wrote at Monticello, "I am
but a young gardener." Every gardener is.
In "Gardening in Eden, " we enter Arthur Vanderbilt's small
enchanted world of the garden, where the old wooden trestle tables
of a roadside nursery are covered in crazy quilts of spring color,
where a catbird comes to eat raisins from one's hand, and a
chipmunk demands a daily ration of salted cocktail nuts. We feel
the oppressiveness of endless winter days, the magic of an
old-fashioned snow day, the heady, healing qualities of wandering
through a greenhouse on a frozen February afternoon, the
restlessness of a gardener waiting for spring.
With a sense of wonder and humor on each page, Arthur Vanderbilt
takes us along with him to discover that for those who wait, watch,
and labor in the garden, it's all happening right outside our
windows.
